...needed money and weapons for his campaign against Barzani. In exchange, Tehran left him a large cache of weapons. That, said Barzani, is what scared him into his unthinkable alliance with Saddam. Still, Kurdish alliances can change in minutes. Barzani has already passed a message to Secretary of State Warren Christopher, saying he threw in with the Kurds' old tormentor only to counterbalance Iranian military intervention on Talabani's side. Now he wants the U.S. to come back and make peace among the Kurds. That would be a fool's mission, since many Kurds were revolted by an alliance, however...
...Clinton's Gulf diplomacy is in trouble. By conducting the raid inside Iraq's sovereign territory, Saddam engineered discomfiting divisions in the allied coalition, where cohesion has already been dissolving as many member nations lose their anti-Saddam resolve.

It's all part of the latest disruption of career life in the Nothing-Is-Sacred Nineties. When corporate behemoths spin off divisions, they often cite the need to "focus on our core competencies" (translation: "We couldn't run this thing") or to "unlock value for investors" ("We made stupid acquisitions, and now we're dumping them"). 3M had to make hard choices about where to invest its money. Imation lost out because of its lousy earnings compared with other businesses...
